    EDIT: I've taken the liberty of cutting out around 40 seconds of the original video, so if the below addendum/apology doesn't make sense to you, that's why - it was for a part of the video that I got rid of. That edit is also part of the reason that some of the audio during the Alluka/Nanika section is a bit inconsistent.
    I'd welcome you to ignore most of what I say about Alluka/Nanika in this. Not only are some of my facts on the rules of her power wrong (apparently, I dunno. Rules aren't what I really concern myself with in stories), but the bit on her gender is just bad. I don't know what I was thinking during that part - I was being ignorant and naive, and I apologize for my insensitivity. Nothing about her biological sex is explicitly stated - and if Alluka wants to be identified as a girl, then that means she's a girl, and Killua's respect for that is as telling as the rest of the family's disrespect. That's all I personally need to know when it comes to that topic. We may know more about Kalluto in upcoming chapters.
    Something I didn't mention in the video:
    There is another Zoldyck that's mentioned in the story that I did not mention in this video: Zzigg Zoldyck. He is thought to be Zeno's father and Maha's son. He once went on an expedition with Netero to the Dark Continent and made it back alive. This also gives some explanation as to how Alluka could have been possessed by Nanika (or "Ai"). Perhaps he brought a Calamity back with him.
    ALSO: It has apparently been confirmed in a breather page in one of the most recent chapters that Nanika is indeed Ai. Kind of an anticlimactic way to reveal it, but meh. So there you go, Nanika = Ai confirmed.

      @siveret23 7 років тому +83

      While we are pretty sure with Nanika coming from the dark continent it would be worth to mention that it could also be an unconscious nen ability like Neon Nostrade with he fortunetelling.
      However, nen is a force of life that could be used by any kind of life, proved by quimera ants. In the world of HxH we haven't seen how animals would use nen because the use in quimera ants comes from humans nen users (at least the way they use it) but nanika could be with this theory a whole new approach for nen, not by humans or human-like creatures but by powerfull, strange and incomprehensible for us, coming from the Dark Continent.
      PD: I know that this is a pretty half-cooked theory but it would be cool that nanika is a nen abiliity and a creature from the dark continent.
      PD2: I don't know why but because it was said that in Netero's expedition died a lot of friends i thought that Zzigg died there and his wife was already pregnant when he went to the Dark Continent, i don't think the manga explicitly says that he died.....i stupidly jumped into conclusions :(

      I am still not convinced that Alluka is male though, the Wikia and Databook list her gender as "male" but also contradict themselves, and say that Milluki and Illumi may have played the pronoun game as part of deliberate abuse towards her.

      @Aleczandxr  7 років тому +49

      Beni Habibi I'm so sorry, I accidentally just deleted your comment with the other question in it. Could you repeat it? About Alluka, there are 5 or 6 reasons stating why she is male, using what I thought was rock solid evidence. I don't remember where I found it though and I don't remember all of the reasons (I believe that once a non-Zoldyck called Alluka a he and Killua didn't correct him, and that was one reason) mainly because I'm sick of the whole debate really.

      this is just speculation (not real so it's not a spoiler don't worry) but i feel like hisoka might kill off leorio to trigger gon back into action. the way he was contemplating on who to kill back when killua was bringing alluka to the hospital felt like really heavy foreshadowing. with leorio and gon's strong bond and gon being essentially out of commission without his nen, it feels like hisoka will grow impatient with him. there's no way he's gonna let gon go back and have a normal life as a kid now 😭😭 the asshole

    I think it's safe to say that most of Silva's seemingly "relaxed" attitude with Killua comes from A) The needle he had Illumi put in his head to control him and B) His confidence in Killua's conditioning. Silva is actually probably the most manipulative of them all. His father/son talk with Killua (which he admits he had never had before) was simply to endear him more in the eyes of his son. He believed that Killua going out into the world would ultimately end with him betraying his friends (either due to his conditioning or the needle's influence) and that Killua would eventually run home, broken, and ready to accept his 'rightful' place in the family. It seems he believes that Killua's desire to have friends and belong to the outside world is fleeting and will die when he realizes how different he is and that he can't be anything other than a Zoldyck.
    He also has his other children and his wife carry out the nasty stuff so that Killua would be afraid of/resentful towards them but he could by contrast play the doting father and win Killua's respect and affection. Subsequently, Killua is afraid of Illumi instead of Silva and is resentful towards Kikyo and not Silva. He is cold and calculated and no more than in the way he pretends affection towards Killua and orders his other family members to do his dirty work so that he can remain the "good cop" in their family. Because Killua is going to be his successor, so he *needs* Killua to see him as an example and look up to him. That makes him, in my opinion, the most insidious of all of them. He does genuinely care for his children in his own way, but only as they are useful to the family business and he distributes his focus accordingly.
    TL;DR: Silva is actually probably the worst out of all of them, it just isn't immediately obvious because he worked hard to make it so, all for the sake of Killua's development.

      You spoke my mind~I would add one more thing. You mentioned his first ever ground breaking father/son talk was to ender him more in killua's eyes. You're absolutely correct on that one. Also, he was asking killua about his friends, and we heard Killua told him about the fight between Gon and Hanzo (he probably told Silva more about Gon than this fight). Now, Silva knew the friend Killua was going to run off with is a naive, stubborn, and hot-headed kid with suicidal tendency. He knew in a dangerous situation, Killua would run because of the needle, and Gon would stay. Thus, he made killua swore never betraying his friends. He knew if Killua did run away, Killua would feel he doesn't deserve to have friends, and go home. (he also said if you're tired, you can come home anytime.)
      If Biscuit didn't point out the condition to Killua and had he actively fight against it, Or if Killua' love for Gon wasn't strong enough (Silva probably doesn't have any good friend to know), Silva's plan might have worked.
      Later when Killua returned home to save Alluka, and used Silva's exact words to do so. It was such a slap in the face for silva. Killua might not notice silva's plan, but still, lol. Silva had to let Killua to help Gon because that was his words. If he broke it, Killua would no longer respect him.

      Nah, Silva and Zeno are actually normal on their own way. The Zoldycks value friendship because they know the importance of it, having a real friend is not just someone to go to places, they know that sometimes shit gets rough and friends are there to help you. Netero is a prime example of that, Netero once fought Maha and became close friends with Ziggs Zoldyck and his friendship became a deep connection that was show on the chimera arc as Netero did not complain and knew how much of a impact hurting an innocent had on Zeno, if netero was all about the money and the mission he would have Zeno stay even if meant barely raising his chances of winning against Meruen using Zeno as a sacrificial pawn BUT NO, he just let him go. There's also the saying on the family that's "the job isn't worth the money", it's not that they are being underpaid, it's just that making a powerful enemy, killing someone that do not deserve it or going against a friend is not worth any money, they only do it because they are professionals but this does not mean that they are happy about finnishing the job.

    In the bit where Hisoka asks Illumi what he would do if he killed killua, in the Japanese manga what hisoka actually said roughly translates to "what would you do if I did killua?" Aka "what would you do if I raped killua?" The symbol he does with his hand also supports that....So yeah...I knew hisoka was perverted but...wow

    Thinking about it, it makes sense if every other member is already quite stable in their personality and drives while Killua fluctuates to find his ideal path.
    Every other member is quite predictable to each other, Killua's the only one that makes his family guess what he'll do next.

    • @MagneOldeide
      @MagneOldeide 7 років тому +48

      Kikyo is very likely an emitter I think. Even if it's not confirmed, Kikyo did fire a projectile at Canary when we first encontered her, and she is "quick to react in a volatile manner" and can be perceived as "quick-tempered and hot-blooded" If you buy in to the Hisoka-Nen predictions. As for the rest I think it's a great observation. EDIT: I Realize now that i was wrong, according to the "Hunter × Hunter Official Databook" she is listed as a Manipulator, i don't personally know enough about the Hunter × Hunter Official Databook, to tell if it's cannon or not, but i am guessing it is.
      The hair thing might have something to do with the prodigy child of each generation having whitehair-blue eyes, (Silva has blond hair in the 2011 anime, but I'll ignore that as a choice made by the animators). Killua-SIlva and assuming Zeno, were all prodigy children for their generations, all have white hair and blue eyes (zeno with a very faded blue), and all are transmuters. That's a really cool observation you made there
      Also you left out Alluka in this case, I guess you did so because we don't know much about her nen abilties, as in if they are hers or if it belongs to Nanika or both? Also she could be a manipulator, and still have specialist powers, like the reverse Kurapika, that has Conjuration and Specialist features. But I won't go too far into that :P

    • @MagneOldeide
      @MagneOldeide 7 років тому +15

      +Soufian 27 Your theory is good, and i wouldn't be surprised if that ended up being the case.However, I have to disagree on one thing. I don't think you are born with a nen type, I think it's something you develope as you mature as a person. As we know, nen is tied to personality and who they are as a person(Your spirit). I might be wrong on this one, but I think your nen type is determined when you encounter nen for the first time (When Wing released Gon and Killuas aura during the heavens arena arc).
      (SPIOLERS: If you haven't read the manga)
      If you belive that nen type is not something you're born with, but rather something that you get when you first discover nen. You could make the argument that Gon won't have the same nen type when he re-learns nen, because of how he has grown as a person, especially during the chimera ant arc. This is however, just speculation, and i can't back too much of it up. Only thing i can say against the argument that nen might carry over, like a gene from a parent, is that Illumi, Milluki and Kalluto might have had a very simillar upbringing, unlike Killua that might have had more freedom thanks to his father. Alot of this is far fetched, and i can't defend this very well, but it is still something worth considering

    There was another foreshadowing for Alluka... It's in the name of Zoldyck siblings, there names in order are -
    Illumi, Milluki, Killua, Alluka, Kalluto
    There is a clear pattern -
    - Each name have exactly 3 syllables (more precisely 3 Kana letters)
    - Middle syllable is always "llu" (in Kana ル)
    - Last syllable of one sibling is the first syllable of the next
    Now, with Alluka missing from the list, one can still see the pattern and infer that there must be another sibling with name "Alluka" which should be younger then Killua but older then Kalluto. And in the flashback photo in chapter 229, the one you mentioned, it's easy to see that the extra sibling in the photo seems younger then Killua but older then Kalluto.

    Something I've been wondering about Illumi's character is whether his obsession with Killua might stem from being sidelined as the heir despite being the oldest. So that his attempts to control Killua, the legitimate heir, are in fact efforts to control the family's future, or grasp on to the power that he may perceive himself as having lost. And maybe he overcompensates the humiliation of being deemed "less worthy" as a son by trying to be the perfect Zoldyck in his protective attitude towards the family as well as carrying out missions to the tee.
    Now, this is just a theory since it has never been explored in the manga as far as I remember but I think it would make sense, as the cultural importance of the firstborn son is so prevalent.

Only to be shunned by Killua, who physically hurts the family (stabby stab) and runs away and from that earns so much honor and respect!? Like srsly? Really!? At least thats my opinion.

    I feel like Killua will take over the family when he realizes Illumi would be in charge otherwise. (Edit:) Actually, he will probably decide to "lead" the family when that's the only way to protect Alluka.
    Also, the white/silver hair seems to show who has the fortitude to take over the family. I think Killua will be more like his grandfather than anyone. Killua's instincts are to kill, but he still appreciated life and reasons to live...I believe his father is right though and it's Killua's nature/instinct to kill.
    *BTW* Silva took Killua to the Heaven's Arena the first time so his mother wouldn't have been able to do anything.
    *AND,* I bet Miluki uses nen with computers and that's why he's so good with them/they're so high tech.

    I also think it's so interesting how you can see the way the Zoldyck parents developed their training techniques. Illumi is essentially Silva and Kikyo's first "test subject" in terms of how they were to go about training their children, which would make sense for him to be THAT unfeeling and cruel - perhaps his training was taken too far, and they completely removed any trace of humanity from him. It is even stated somewhere, or at least alluded to the fact (I can't quite remember where but I do know it exists somewhere in canon), that even Kikyo and Silva believe Illumi to be a monster of sorts. That said, it would also make sense for Milluki to be the less successful sibling (or at least from what I could tell, considering he's clearly the sibling most overlooked, with the exception of Alluka); as his training could have been "too forgiving," and the least effective. Then, they moved on to Killua, where they found the perfect "middle ground" in their training methods. This could be another reason why Killua is favored by his parents, because he was the result of a perfected training regimen; and why Kalluto is just as much of a perfect assassin as Killua. It seems to me that Kalluto is the closest to what Killua could have become, had he not defied his parents.

    • @ztaoexolisaguanlin5675
      @ztaoexolisaguanlin5675 5 років тому +48

      We will never know I guess. I personally think Kurapika can kill most of the Spiders (maybe 50-50 with Feitan & Phinks) in a one-on-one battle except for Chrollo. The thing is Chrollo is also a specialist like Kurapika hence they aren't a good match as one of Kurapika's advantage against other phantom members is being a specialist once his eyes turn red. Kurapika also said it's hard for him to land his chain jail as they can avoid it in a millisecond hence why he have to ask help from Gon, Killua, Leorio and Melody and used darkness as advantage to capture Chrollo since he himself know that without it Chrollo could easily avoid his chain jail.
      So if I have to bet Chrollo will probably win that battle but he will not kill Kurapika and just left him there unconscious. The thing with Chrollo is that we never actually see him get serious in a fight yet. In his fight with Silva and Zeno he was merely trying to steal their powers. And in his fight with Hisoka even if he did win & killed Hisoka (before Hisoka come back to life!) you can see that he was still so chill and wasn't giving much effort. I actually want to see him get serious.

Now it‘s clear that Hisoka will kill him and the troupe though, if Togashi wanted Hisoka dead he wouldn’t have made him come back. It‘s clear now that Hisoka will obliterate the Troupe and Chrollo

    I like the entire family, including Milluki. I've had periods where I was allowed to be a shut in and not really need to leave the house, and I'd understand if he felt resentment for being a shut in. That'd be pretty normal. Not that the Zoldycks are normal by any stretch.
    I think he's a good representation of the vices of wealth, when your needs can be provided for. Laziness is a very difficult trap to avoid in that instance, and that'd explain why he's not a good fit to lead the family, according to Zeno. If he did lead the family, even in brilliance, and he got lazier then that'd be a problem. Tech support seems to be what he's best suited for and he doesn't resent that enough to deviate much from that.
    This video is fantastic too.

  • @epicotakucherry5280
    @epicotakucherry5280 4 роки тому +43

    This is a really great video about the Zoldycks. It's basically what I've been craving. You reminded me a lot of what I've forgotten about the family and also taught me more (both about things I didn't understand, looked over, forgot, or didn't know because they were in the manga).
    The Zoldycks are probably my favorite character group in HxH other than the main 4 protagonists, and as Killua is my favorite character (one of my favorites of all time), they are of course pivotal to understanding him and his growth.
    One thing always bothered me about the family, though: as you said, Zeno is the most well-adjusted of them all. He's not cruel, he's reasonable, and is overall a pretty good guy considering the whole murder thing and being-cool-with-torturing-your-family thing. Netoro wouldn't be friends with someone that was truly so awful. Also, Silva demonstrated through that convo about friendship and such with Killua, and his allowance and advocacy of Killua's freedom, that he's not all bad. So why is it that Milluki ended up so needlessly cruel, even causing trouble for them to an extent (it can't be easy to constantly replace servants with super-sensitive information and specifically skillsets because your son keeps killing them all for absolutely no reason)? That's practically an antithesis to Zeno and some of the family values. He doesn't have to be nice, but being so cruel and lashing out so much isn't beneficial to their business either, the "they didn't do anything because they ignored him argument" doesn't work -- if someone you're ignoring is causing problems for you, you fix that. They could've went on to ignore his existence after cutting down on his cruel tendencies, so long as they only did that much.
    Even Illumi isn't as bad as Milluki. He's arguably a far worse person, but as an ideal (mostly) assassin, he does everything the family needs him to do, so even though I feel like Zeno and Silva should be combatting his awful behavior more, it makes sense that they didn't. They literally just don't care that much (I mean, Silva married Kikyo and rarely hinders her, what more evidence do we need?) and since he's not causing problems and is actually fantastic at his job, they have no reason to.
    I feel like they SHOULD care some more, at least Zeno since his morals are the best among them, but they clearly have so much apathy that it negates them taking pretty much any action against the family (that one time he halted Milluki from continuing to torture Killua is pretty much the only time I can think of, and even then, he let him start and probably only stopped because getting him more injured would only be a nuisance).
    Also, a separate thing, I appreciate the theory on Kalluto. I definitely still have plenty more to learn about LGBTQ identity and issues, and as such I was somewhat confused about what Kalluto perceives his gender to be. I'm using male-pronouns here because the wiki does, refers to his gender as male (which is notable, because the wiki separates gender and sex for Alluka), and even Killua refers to him as a male. Alluka's entire existence proves that not only is Togashi aware of more possibilities of gender identity, so it makes sense that deliberate choices were made for Kalluto's. Because of the clothes he wears, he is absolutely aware that others would assume him to be a girl and refer to him as such unless he corrects them. To the best of my understanding, my takeaway is that Kalluto identifies as a boy, and enjoys wearing feminine clothing, and I guess just doesn't particularly care about misgendering. I'd have to go back and check, but I'm not sure how the Phantom Troupe referred to Kalluto. I think as a girl (at least in the dub, I don't know about the sub), and considering Kalluto was reluctant to open up or speak to them at all, I doubt he corrected them. The next theory I have is that he may identify more closely as nonbinary, genderfluid, or agender, but I'm not sure. I think the boy theory is the most likely one at the moment.
    The layer about wanting to be perceived as feminine so Killua would love him like Alluka also adds another layer to it, as well as Kikyo wanting a girl so badly that she might start pushing it onto her last child once she saw an opening to do so (because Kalluto clearly wasn't raised as a girl from birth). It'd be one thing if all of this would have come about without those influences, that this is truly how he believes best expresses who he is, but it'd be another if these were things that were pushed on him by his mom and he felt pressured to adopt to gain his brother's love. That would definitely muddle things, especially if it's a mix of both -- he would've eventually done so anyway, but it didn't come up until those circumstances arose. So because of that, I want even more of Kalluto's POV so we have a better idea of how he perceives himself.
    Please feel free to chime in with ideas or correct me, especially the Kalluto stuff. If I misused terms or have some kind of misconception or offended someone, I apologize, let me know and I'll edit the comment. Thanks.

    I am very curious about the grandma from the Zoldyck family. Nobody ever talks about her. There are 10 members in the family. There is Zeno, Silva Kyoko, Illumi, Milluki, Killua, Alluka, Kalluto and there is the great-grandfather, but I never heard anyone mention the grandma.

  • @cosmomind7469

    What I wanna know is how is the family going to continue; there assassins but they seem to have a “loving” family dynamic so you’d think they’d want there kids to not only have a strong SO but one that loves them too
    Milluki is never gonna get a girlfriend since he never even leaves his house
    Kaluto is still just a kid but seems to be so obsessed with living up to the family name and wanting to be with killua he might not deal well with social interaction
    Illumi seems to be the one you’d expect to bring a wife for the family to continue, buuuuut the closest I can see him with someone is they had a needle in there brain to act as a baby factory
    So Killua is the one they expect to be the heir to the family but he doesn’t want anything to do with them and is taking care of Alluka
    So now this begs the question. How the hell are any of these kids ever gonna grow up and get married?

  • @ery9783
    @ery9783 6 років тому +200

    Although the video is over a year old I wanted to add something because I think it's an interesting detail : all the Zoldyck children's names have a verb in it (I have no idea how widely known this is since I'm completely detached from the fandom and haven't read much trivia- I just noticed it as I learned japanese). Iru means to be as a living being, Miru means to see, Kiru means to cut, Aru means to be as an inanimate object, and Karu means to borrow. I can't provide much analysis on that, but it's nice material to think about.
    As for Alluka, my personal headcanon is that she was assigned male at birth but identifies as a girl (basically, a trans girl) and Illumi and Milluki use male pronouns because they don't really understand what it means or haven't really questioned/reflected on their own identity themselves (especially Illumi) and don't understand why other people do so (especially Milluki, since he doesn't go outside). I think empathy and compassion in the Zoldyck family are a nice concept to reflect on as well - since some sort of empathy is needed to read, predict and explain the actions of other people, which is likely something you need to do in order to better kill them, but any kind of compassion or a certain kind of emotional empathy are forbidden, and concepts such as identifying as a different gender than the one assigned to you at birth are probably too complex for people like Milluki and sound futile for people like Illumi. Maybe I'm thinking too much and they're just abusive on purpose.
    Anyway thank you so much for your videos ! I'm currently working on a fanfiction set over two decades after the elections arc, and I might have to write a next generation Zoldyck at one point so having your insights on the whole family will definitely help me to write a character that makes sense.

      The names of the siblings also follow a pattern. All have "llu" as their second syllable, and the final syllable of their names are the first syllable of the next sibling: IlluMI, MilluKI, KilluA, AlluKA, Kalluto. If there were a sixth one, they'd be Tollu-something.

    • @zacharythefish6939

      Im pretty sure the Zeno or Illumi make some kind of reference to Alluka being born male. But if not it would make sense why she's named using the "aru" prefix. Basically stating that Alluka is just a vessel for Nanika and that she doesn't matter. And because Nanika is not human the Zoldyck's probably refer to it as a he purely for simplicities sake.
